About our fire rated sealant in Tillietudlem
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you have gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, we can help, whatever the surface.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Tillietudlem, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Tillietudlem and across South Lanarkshire.

Common problems we fix in Tillietudlem
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
Rented homes near Carluke station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Leave it or put it right?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Around Tillietudlem, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. Outdoor work around Tillietudlem depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Common questions in Tillietudlem
Is Tillietudlem within the area you cover?
Yes, Tillietudlem is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Tillietudlem?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that’s how we fit it. We do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a one-year guarantee.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
